Introduction |
| |
|
|
|
¶
|
|
This Lectionary supplements the
Collects, Epistles and Gospels printed out in The Book of
Common Prayer by providing |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
¶ |
Psalms and Old Testament lessons which
may be used at Holy Communion alongside the Epistles and Gospels
which are printed out in the Prayer Book; |
| |
|
¶ |
A Collect, psalm and readings for use at Holy
Communion on certain days for which no Collect, Epistle and Gospel
are printed out in the Prayer Book; and |
| |
|
¶ |
Alternative Collects for Good Friday and Easter
Day. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
The collects and New Testament readings originated
for the most part in the 1928 Prayer
Book; the Old Testament readings appeared first in The Book
of Common Prayer according to the use of India, Pakistan, Burma and
Ceylon (1960). These provisions were appended to the Series
One Holy Communion service in 1965 and subsequently re-authorized.
In 2000 they were re-authorized for use until further resolution of
the General Synod. |

|
|
| |
|
Any version of Holy Scripture may be used which
is permitted by lawful authority. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
The references to passages of Scripture in the
readings are to the numeration of the Authorized Version of the
Bible. |
